My eyes slowly opened, I was in my bed. How did I get here? I looked up to see my older brother Sky Stinger, and his girlfriend, Vapor Trail. They both have worried expressions on their faces. " What happened?" My voice is soft and weak. I turn just a bit, and a sharp pain comes from my wing."Oww! My wing!"
My brother puts another pillow behind me, so I can sit up properly. " I thought you were gone." He said, his voice was sad, but trying to be happy. His light blue eyes look at me, more worried expression.
"Really, is this some get-up? What happened to my wing!" I ask demandingly.
" No, Ocean breeze," Vapor Trail's voice was soft, trying to calm me."You had a crash landing, and your wing - it is broken."
It only angers me more."What! Why aren't I at the hospital then?"
My brother looks at Vapor Trail. Their eyes are the same pretty color I wish I had. Again they exchange worried glances.
"Go on, tell her the truth."
"Ocean, you know why I joined the Wonderbolts, right?" I shake my head."Mom and Dad work very hard, to raise all of us, but they have very little money left over. So, I knowing my true talent, signed up for the Wonderbolts-"
"Technically, it wasn't just your talent to start off with." Vapor Trail cut in.
"True, anyways, I get maybe 10 bits a week, and that isn't enough. You see, we simply do not have enough money to go to the hospital. I'm sorry, Ocean Breeze."
I was in disbelief. Sure, I knew that Christmas was always a little tight since Blooming Bouquet was born, my sister three years younger than me, but we didn't have enough money to go get an x-ray and a cast?
"You should get some rest, Ocean," Sky told me.
"Where are the others?" I asked.
"At the market." Vapor said. She looked at my clock."Oh, geez, I'm sorry guys! I promised Rainbow Dash I would be at the Acadamy to teach some tricks. If I don't leave know, I will be late. Hope your wing gets better, Ocean." Vapor Tail flew out of my room, through the window.
"I am going to go get some snacks." Sky said. He left the room.
My eyes were getting tired, from all the excitement I had Within the last 30 minutes. I really hoped this was just a dream. I fell asleep reasoning to myself that this was just one big prank.
The next morning, my Mother awakes me, telling me to get ready and to go downstairs. I leap out of my bed, and my wing has another sharp pain. I slowly head towers the bathroom, to take a shower, and to brush my teeth.
Thirty minutes later, I walk down the stairs- instead of my usual fly, Mom, Dad, and the siblings are back, and I am inundated with questions.
"Ocean Breeze are you okay? My coach told me what happened after the tournament." Windy Burn tells me.
"What happened?" Jeweled Pencil, my youngest sibling asks.
"Can you fly?"
"How does your wing feel?" Dad asked.
Now it is my turn to ask a question."Do you guys all have to ask me at once? Like, I know you are worried and all, but really?" I may have come off a little mean, but, I had to tell them." No, I will not be able to fly for a while, because I crashed into a tree. And whenever my wing moves just the slightest bit, it has a sharp pain." I explain.
Snowflake Star comes up to me, she is four years younger at me, at the age of nine. She carries a fabric and gives it to me. " I made you a sling, I don't know if it will fit. she helps me to put it on my wing.
"Thankyou! It fits perfect."
She smiles.
There was a knock on the door. Sky opens it up and in comes a pegasus. She is cyan blue, with rainbow hair. My jaw drops. "Rainbow Dash! LOOK! IT IS THE RAINBOW DASH!"
"Sup!" she says.
Did Rainbow Dash just say 'sup' to me? This is the best day ever!!!!
"I heard about your wing, hope you get better. I myself have broken a wing once or twice - they don't call me Rainbow Crash for nothing - there is an above 60% you will be able to fly again."
Hearing those uplifting words, from my hero, I can't help but smile." Thankyou!" I beam
"Have you practice your loop-the-loop twist dive, Sky?" Rainbow Dash asked my brother
"Yes, and I am starting to get the hang of it."
"Good to hear." then looking around the room, she added, " You guys have a full house!"
" Well, that is my mom, my dad. Ocean Breeze, Windy Brun, Jeweled Pencil, and Snowflake Star, also there is me. our house is always full, and then Vapor Trail comes over often.
Rainbow Dash let out a whistle. I love when she does that. "Hey, Rainbow Dash, can you do some tricks?" I ask. I know all of her signatures moves, but it would be amazing if I could see them in person.
"Sure thing!" we all went out to the backyard.
Rainbow Dash flew up and bucked some clouds out of the sky. Us below clapped. Next, she did loop-the-loops. She twisted in a downward spiral, till she was 5 feet from the ground. just as I thought she was to land, she shot right back up faster than I ever could. And boom! I couldn't believe my eyes! She just did a RAINBOOM!
Whe oohed and ahhed. Rainbow dash is famous for her very fist rainboom, where her friends earned their cutie mark at the same time, I was kind of hoping that I would have earned my cutie mark right there and then. I checked my flank, but it was still blank, but at least I saw one in person!
